Ola found a way to make something work and for the heavy tones and review's from that perspective he is probably the most consistent and best thing going.
I have yet to find a hipster with a tele properly representing anything metal on any channel.The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side.

If I was buying one that would be my biggest concern. For a grand or more I expect frets to not require immediate attention.
The Solar Coroner model gets me excited, and part of that is sentimental for sure. I still jam Coroner occasionally, mainly P.F.D..

Recently picked up a brand new PRS SE CU24 from Indonesia and, honestly, I grab it more often than I did any of my Core models. Granted, I had to replace the factory nut out of the gate because the slots were cut so sloppy, but that took $20 and 20 minutes of my time and now it plays exceptional! Fretwork, finish, woods used...all excellent! I've played crappier Korean-made guitars.

Big knock on the Washy website though. I was looking at this model and it doesn't even say what the neck-joint is, or what FR type (special, 1000, ect.)
How in the world do these people in marketing omit such crucial details? I see this stuff all the time from many websites.

Solar stuff's been around for some years now. Some look nice, especially now that they're coming in colours other than black, white and grey.
Kinda dig this one, have to say, needs a trem though!
